Law firm relocates more than 100 staff to The Colmore Building
Kennedys has completed its move into The Colmore Building, to cement its commitment to the Birmingham market.
The law firm established its Birmingham office in 2008, with an initial team of six. Since then, the office has expanded to a team of 108, including 12 partners.
It serves local and international clients, with expert insurance teams specialising in healthcare, professional liability, motor, employers’ liability, public liability, property, energy, construction and Local Authority claims.
As part of the firm’s partnership with Every Child Online, the Birmingham move saw nearly 400 pieces of IT equipment (including desktop PC’s monitors and TV screens) donated to children and young adults across the UK.
Refurbished devices are distributed to schools, clubs, community groups, refugee centres, local councils and charities supporting under-resourced children and young adults.
Lead partner in Birmingham Eamon Mooney said: “This new space reiterates Kennedys commitment to the Birmingham market, home to the largest Insurance Institute outside of London. We are excited to offer a contemporary environment for colleagues that accommodates hybrid working and also serves as a central, welcoming location for our clients.”
The office features new flexible breakout areas to support both collaborative working and individual focus work, in addition to amenities including health and wellness services. The Colmore Building is rated as excellent by BREEAM, with 100% of the building’s electricity coming from renewable resources.
